The Minnesota IT Services (MNIT) agency activated its cybersecurity incident response capabilities across the entire state after hackers targeted more than 30 community water systems in “a coordinated cyberattack.”
The attacks occurred on Sunday and Monday, July 26 and 27, and targeted operational technology (OT) systems at local water utilities.
In a statement early Monday, the City of Braham said that the water plant was “offline for an unknown reason.”
“Crews are actively troubleshooting the problem and will restore services as soon as possible,” the city said in a communication to its residents.
